Angel Ornament

It’s starting to look a lot like Christmas on Angel Island. For years, I’ve wanted to photograph this lone Christmas tree at the peak of Angel Island and, as luck would have it, this year offered the best opportunity to capture it on Dec. 21 with the full moon as the perfect Christmas ornament.

My location was up the road from Fort Baker towards Sausalito looking eastward as the moon slowly crept above the island’s peak.
